Introduction by Vangelis Calotychos.

A passionate love triangle. Jealousy. Murder. A universal tale of social injustice played out in a Greek village. The story of a marginal man imprisoned by forces greater than himself for a murder he did not commit. Filled with fiercely realistic scenes of bygone rural life, Condemned (1919) by Konstantinos Theotokis combines rich characterization with colorfully textured language and is narrated with a forward thrust that makes the novel a page turner even as it poses questions regarding the toll of guilt and the possibility of redemption.
